Existence of solutions for a semirelativistic Hartree equation with unbounded potentials

Abstract

We prove the existence of a solution to the semirelativistic Hartree equation $$\sqrt{-\Delta+m^2}u+ V(x) u = A(x)\left( W * |u|^p \right) |u|^{p-2}u $$ under suitable growth assumption on the potential functions $V$ and $A$. In particular, both can be unbounded from above.
